Lobes of the brain
part of the brain responsible for vision
occipital
Stores sequences of movement (implicit memories) such as how to ride a bike
cerebellum
CNS is comprised of
brain and spinal cord
response to sensory stimuli that are innate/inbuilt
reflex
part of the brain responsible for names of colours
temporal lobe
The part of the nervous system that controls voluntary movement
somatic nervous system (PNS)
branch of autonomic nervous system that slows down responses such as heart rate
parasympathetic
Bundle of nerve fibres connecting Wernicke's and Broca's area?
Geschwind's territory
Part of the brain that if injured affects speech production
Broca's area
the primary motor cortex occurs at the back of this cerebral area
frontal lobe
Parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system make up this system
autonomic nervous system
The primary somatosensory region is found in which lobe?
Parietal lobe
Name of the strategy of organisation that means your left side of your brain controls the right side of your body
Contralateral organisation
set of structures responsible for control of movement, gathering and channelling information from different parts of the brain
basal ganglia
are motor neurons are also known as...
efferent neurons
the state of balance in the body
homeostasis
The set of neural fibres joining the left hemisphere to the right hemisphere
corpus callosum
The 3 regions of the brain responsible for voluntary movement.
Basal ganglia, cerebellum, primary motor cortex.
the patella reflex is an example of this type of reflex arc
monosynaptic reflex
